The Poem OF Boom Town.

his town as dead as the tomb; it died
from the cause of too much boom !
1t was doomed by the papers and
doomed by the people, rices were
raised as high as steeple. They
piastered the land with mortgages
deep, and burdened the town with
taxes so steep. They paid big
bonus to build a new road, and laid
for the suckers on whom to unload.
But the cash they snaked in from
their victims SO rank was all gobbled
up by the "3 per cent" bank. Its
officers skipped while the boom was
still high, and left the poor victims
to suffer and sigh!
But, alas, for their hopes! they sigh in
vain; they will never look on their
like again. The boom has fattened
and left them "broke," and the Can
ada trip is sorry joke. And the
mortgages stick to that tasted town,
for that which goes up must surely
come down. And though they may
brag of the excellent "parks," this
suckers fight shy of the real estate
sharks. And the ''ad." in the paper
has had Its day, for the agent who
wrote it omitted to pay, and til,
grass grows high where the train
once run, to the town which tn,
boom has all undone.

TO Farmers.

Approaching the advantages of plac.
ing the products of the country before
the public, we desire TO make a full col.
lection of agricultural products of the
Northern Pacific country for exhibition
at the Minneapolis Industrial exposition,
which opens August 81 and continues
until October 15. at The Minnesota State
fair, September 0 to September II, and
in the eastern states. 1t will result to
advantage of every citizen of the coun.
try if the farmers and others will collect
from this years crop specimens of grain
in the sheaf and in the berry, native and
cultivated grasses. all kinds of vegetables,
fruits, dairy and other products, and de-
liver to the Northern Pacific railroad ad-
dressed to "P. B. Groat, General Emf
grafton agent, St. Paul, Minnesota" /" and
they will be, promptly forwarded by ex-
press.
Each article should be labeled, giving
its name, yield per acre, weight per
bushel and other information. Name
the post Office address of the producer,
so that due credit can be given.
Appropriate labels will be sent to all
Northern Pacific railroad agents, who
will supply applicants.
Hoping for liberal response SO as to
enable this office to prepare an exhibit
which will do Justice to the agricultural
resources Of this region,
I remain, yours truly,

That is what someone in every locality
SAYS at some time every year. tits what
manv people in many parts Of the coun.
try are saying now. A large part OF the
Upper Mississippi valley is consumed by
q parching drouth. Correspondents write
Of the baked prairies cracking open in
deep fissures; Of herbage burned up ;
of springs and streams dry and the corn,
which is the very last thing to yield to
hot, dry weather, already enfeebled and
doomed to failure unless relief comes
speedily, and this in the great corn belt
Of the country where maize is the staple
crop. Of course, the loss In shrunken
dairy products and unthrifty meat cattle
is serious. The winter and spring gram
in this region averaged well where it
was allowed to grow, brit over one-half
the area the chinch bug left almost utter
devastation. Add to this the loss of
fruit and such crops as the potato and
the people of the central and northern
west have certainly cause to pronounce
this trying year.
And here along the seaboard down to
the cotton belt, for nearly month past,
there has been an excess of water, COM
ing in floods, with beating winds and
excessive heat. In many places grain
has stood in the shock until it sprouted
and thus lost its value, while the straw
has been next to ruined. Low meadows
have been overflowed and the hay wash.
ed away. Corn never grew better, but
it is in many places beaten down beyond
all hope of rising again. The hot, damr
weather has favored the growth of rusi
and rot and smut and mildews, so tina,
these destructive growths threaten tc
DESTROY whatever fruit the rosebugs have
left.
Now, all these losses do not come in
one place. Each farmer has something
lett, but there is hardly a county in the
union where SONS one crop or produc
tion is not seriously shortened by som,
cause beyond the farmers control. An,
something of this sort is the annual ex
perience. If the draught does not com,
early it comes later. If one destructive
agency spares this state to attack the
next we may expect invasion from some
other pest from which are neighbors are
fortunately free. These disagreeabl,
facts go far. .to-slsow why farmers are no
& more successful as class. Agriculture
writers will figure up what farm SHOULD
produce. They give fair average yieldi
and prices and then estimate the profits
But they do not take into account that
in some product-no~ one and now an
other-there is an annual failure. Losses
from unusual weather condition are as
certain as the progress of the seasons
The farmer may guard agains; many by
foreihonght, but from others he is help
less to escape. When the wheat croI
fails some editor will tell him that it il
his own fault if he suffers. "Wly dom

A YPuft Test.


Mr.. 8. J. Hoggson, the inventor of a new
process for preserving fruit, is still in
the city making experiments on oranges.
A new test was applied yesterday, and
the fruit was carried over to the ice
house to be subjected to the freezing pro-
cess.
Fourteen oranges were placed In can
and subjected TO a temperature Of f4O'.
Seven Of the oranges were preserved by
the Hogson process and seven are in
their normal condition. Two OF the or
anges are preserved and one unpeeserved
to be taken from the freezer every hour
for the six hours, the remaining two to
be left in the freezer forty eight hours.
Each two of the oranges are to be
placed side by side in THE NEWS Office.
and the result noted.
The design Of the experiment is, first
to find how much frost an orange viii
bear and remain good. il any. Also te
find whether the preventative has any
influence in resisting frost. and il 50 Il
what extent.
The experiment is conducted under
the care Of Martin Griffin, ST., w. III
HasbrOuck,L L. C. Canova and THE News
reporter.
The following experiment was tried
ON the 4th Of March. Two oranges were
selected, and fine slices Of the rind were
taken of each, cutting almost to tbs
juice. One was immersed in the HOgg
son preservative and the other left as il
was. They have stood side by side
since then Now ON the 18th one shows
signs of decay in two places, while the
other. that was dipped IN the preserva
tive, is perfectly sound. ana the orange.
are in this Office where further results
